Hey! Can you please tell me whether it’s any use buying a Mac over a Win PC laptop for a student about to start college in a Graduate course of Electrical & Electronics OR Computer Engineering?

I’ll be mainly using it for preparing assignments, internet surfing and maybe playing games (not those demanding extremely high resources)

Oh yeah! I am comfortable with Win XP as such, have been using Windows for like 12 years i think…..but i am prepared to try Mac too! (+ i can use the Apple boot camp to run windows anyway)
Does Mac have any advantages? Does it make work any easier?

I understand it costs more…so consider only the models available at a price below , 00 or 00…

Please tell me what you think…Best answer if u convince me with your view!
Thanx in advance!

Ok well for my new laptop i really want an apple one
but i want it to be able to play sims2 and sims3
Im lookin at the dell XPS M1330 because it has a finger scanner built in webcam and would play the sims2 and 3?

Which one is better?
Which one is easier to use?
If i get an apple which one should i get and what software would i need?
Will either of them play the sims2 +3?
BTW i have sims2 for pc and i dont want to have to buy a new one for mac if i get it so how easy would it be to use that program thing that you can use to have windows on a mac?

Would it be easy or hard to switch from a pc laptop to an apple btw my desktop computer is pc

I have used Apple computers for years at work as a newspaper page designer. However, I’ve never owned one myself, so I’ve never paid that much attention to the specs.

My PC laptop is nearing the end of its life, and I was thinking about buying an Apple laptop to be able to more easily work on work projects at home.

The only things I can think of that I’d be looking to do on the laptop are wireless Internet (of course), Photoshop, InDesign and iMovie/iDVD. I don’t do much else, except occasionally burn a CD, so I don’t think I need a brand new or anywhere near top-of-the-line machine. In fact, the cheaper, the better. (I’m not against buying used or refurbished.)

Anyone with a lot more Apple-buying experience than me have any ideas or advice? Thanks!

I need to replace my sons pc laptop (crashed from another virus) but I want to go with a used mac as I’ve been reading that those are more resilient to viruses. Where can I buy one?? I’ve checked the apple store but those were still pretty expensive.
